Well, so far I've done approximately none of the items, so maybe I'll start with one of them. Not the nails one though; I'm still schooling and the teachers don't allow that! Love your blog :) Keep writing articles like this! Wow. run for president? Well, so far I’ve done approximately none of the items, so maybe I’ll start with one of them.

I'm truly surprised at how many of these things I have done... and I consider myself a big chicken! The biggest thing before me now is #4. I know I have to find my own path. I've known for 7 years. Er, 10 years. Um, 20 years. I'm setting a lot of things in motion, praying, and taking action. I just need to save some money and invest money I already have. And invest in myself. I need to believe in myself. Stay tuned! Wow… I’m truly surprised at how many of these things I have done… and I consider myself a big chicken! The biggest thing before me now is #4.

I saw one of your performances at The Handlebar in Greenville, SC about the time I was experiencing 3 of the top 5 causes of stress- "Rise" was and still remains a song that makes me feel like I can do anything (more recently followed by "Right Outta Nowhere". Much about my life has changed since then (all positive) and based on your list, I'm a pretty courageous person already! Affirmation rocks! I used the Eleanor Roosevelt quote you mention above for my signature line for years which only recently has been replaced by a line from you - "Leap and the Net will appear". I have one more thing to add to the list though - "complete an endurance event" - it could sort of fit into #61, but I think it has alot of merit on it's own. A good friend was diagnosed with lymphoma in May. For a few months, I sat helpless and frustrated because this is her second bout with it. Finally in August, I signed up with Team In Training to run a full marathon in her honor, which I'll be hopefully completing on January 13, 2008 (2 days after my birthday). I am not a runner by any definition. but somehow I've managed to coax my body to "endure" at least 20 miles at a stretch ... only 6.2 to go! It might have something to do with the fact that I receive alot of extra energy by my toe nails which are usually painted fluorescent lime green. Those who choose to fight the cancer battle are the real endurance champions - thinking about that keeps me focused while every muscle in my body is screaming. My blog is about the training experience so far - if you read any of it, "Flashing Blue Lights" in the November archive gives you a glimpse of my mindset. Thanks again for making the most of your talents and touching my life and so many others in such a positive way. Happy New Year!

And as I'm reading it ... I'm starting to recognize that I'm, well, kind of courageous!!! There's a lot of stuff on there that I do already - and I'm willing to tackle a few more. I'm particularly open to doing things badly - pottery being my most recent venture. I find making bad pottery very therapeutic! :-) Thank you for the ongoing inspiration! Blessings, Andrea Fantastic list, Christine. And as I’m reading it … I’m starting to recognize that I’m, well, kind of courageous!!!

I think you can read my mind! I am not a courageous person but I can't believe how many of these things I have done - or intended to do if I have the time or money to do them. And the the highlighted ones - I just told my husband earlier today that I would like to quit my job (not going to happen), I have wanted to go on a retreat for a long time (not going to happen), I have been getting rid of alot of stuff around the house (I have about 5 large boxes of stuff sitting in the garage waiting to be hauled to good will), I have never thought about writing a novel. pam Wow!!!
